Getting paint off uPVC
« on: June 24, 2015, 05:12:39 pm »
Hi guys,

I've had the following message via my website, "After painting my fence with a spraying device small bits of paint have found there way onto a next doors conservatory. After a lot of cleaning I have managed to get the windows clean but small specs still appear over the PVC parts of the conservatory. Is this a job that you would be able to take on to get the conservatory back to original state? And if so what price range would this be in. Many thanks."

Any ideas?

Cheers

Smudger

You need to know what it is first, Cuprinol - creosote - creo-cote - ronseal etc...

If it's Cuprinol or other water based fence stain then a hard rub with non abrasive pad and neat TRF / Virosol / U bike or up can cream cleaner will take it off no problem  price well I charge £10 per frame

If it's solvent based then you may need something a little stronger

Darran has explained it there mate, it's easy enough just time consuming but at the right price it's an nice job, water based used as advised.......solvent cleaner is about £3.50 a bottle (750ml) this 1 bottle would be enough to do a whole side frames wise

Once finished rinse with pure and a clean clothing hand to rub frames down

Give them a price on roof clean while your there  ;D

Autoglym  Super resin polish will remove it but it will take a bit of time depending on the paint.
